I'm new to this, what is the FROG International Rally? |
It's a rally put on in Goshen Indiana by Forest River. "FROG" is the Forest River Owners Group. They put on rallies and meet ups for FR owners around the country every year. The Intn'l rally in Goshen is a bit different.. It's held at the Local fairgrounds, about 800 sites available, sells out in hours. It's an opportunity to, among other things, tour the factory and meet the crew that built your camper, or at least some of them, get inside look at new models FR is bringing out, tour Amish country, and eat bad food in a huge building. One of the biggest "perks" of attending it is factory service, on-site. No matter the age or model year of your Pod, if it has an issue that would be covered under warranty, it will be repaired. Or, at least somethings will be. In the first couple years, they fixed pretty much anything and everything. Now that the rally is so big, they limit you to choosing the 3 or 4 things that you want fixed.. I have seen 10 year old toy haulers get 3 new axles, gratis. I have seen Pods get axles, fridges, a/c units.. etc etc.
We went 3 times when we owned our Pod, and in fact, last year (2017) we went up JUST to visit with the crew, and stayed offsite, since we no longer belong to FROG.
